LOL You hate to see it when the local Hamas terrorists are now threatened by Palestinian civilians who want to gain access to the humanitarian suppliesExtraordinary video from Gaza! Gazans raid aid trucks before they reach Red Crescent warehouses, which are suspected of showing favoritism in aid distribution. Hamas gunmen arrive to protect the trucks and are met with stone throwing and curses. pic.twitter.com/ptRkLDg2gl

I just watched the roughly 45-minute footage of October 7th at a private screening in NYC. Here are my immediate thoughts minutes after watching it. 🧵

What's it say for those who don't have an account?
I hated having to watch the video. You can’t unsee the evil shown in it. No one should want to see it, but the horrors of that day should never be forgotten. Never rationalized away. The phrase in my head the whole time “Never Again” from the past, but I was watching it again.

A home CCTV footage in the Kibbutz, a father in his underwear (looks to have just woken) frantically carrying his two sons, running, boys also in underwear (both appear between 8-12 like my son). Another camera shows them leave the house & enter a shelter in their backyard.
— John Spencer (@SpencerGuard) December 4, 2023
Seconds later a Hamas approaches the shelter the father and sons entered, looks in, and then throws a grenade into it. The father falls out of the shelter dead, clearly having attempted to stand between his sons and the terrorist.

The boys are pulled out of the shelter over their dead father’s body by a terrorist. They are taken back into the house, put on the couch in the house. Now sounds vividly of their moans of pain, blood from their injuries covering them, the boys talking to each other “Dad is dead”

Rape & targeting of the young women at the festival. 1st a video of a group of more than 5 teenage girls scared, shaking huddled together in a tent. Hamas terrorist enters the tent. All girls handcuffed walked out of the tent now all bloodied faces. Some put in different vehicles

One girl from the original huddle, from the line walked out, separated and put into a jeep. Later same girl moved, pants covered in blood just around anus to front of pants. More photos of dead teenage women laying in the field of the festival, no pants, legs appear broken.

Beheadings. One scene shows Hamas in a Kibbutz screaming at a dead elderly Israeli man, stepping on his head and then asking for the garden hoe nearby. The Hamas terrorist strikes at the old mans need repeatedly trying to behead him.

This. We should be letting Dubai know that harboring Hamas leaders puts them on least favored nation status and they should expect to be treated as an enemy until the leaders are expelled or turned over to Israel for trial and all American hostages are released.P.H. Dexippus said:

🧵Critical Thread. Close review of Gaza casualty figures reported by UN OCHA based on daily Hamas “Ministry of Health” numbers proves they are FALSIFIED. Women & children are grossly inflated. This is easily proven but media ignores. See detailed expose below: 1/

It first becomes apparent on Oct 19 reporting where Hamas reports 3,785 deaths vs 3,478 prior day or +307. But children killed magically move up from 853 to 1,524 or +671. Oct 18 reporting deaths were 25% children but next day it jumps to 40%! UN published detail is below: 4/ pic.twitter.com/rx12in1ZfJ

Hamas-linked financiers made hundreds of millions of dollars of profits by shorting Israeli stocks before the October 7 massacre, two analysts say.
One unidentified trader 'shorted' 4.43 million shares in Israel's largest bank, Leumi, between September 15 and October 5 - meaning they gambled that the price of Leumi's shares would fall.
After the October 7 attack, Leumi's share price did indeed plummet as its operations were paralyzed, earning a $900 million profit for the trader, who is believed to have links to Hamas.
Quote:
On Monday they published a report into their findings titled: 'Trading on Terror?'
They've speculated that the cash may have been funneled back into Hamas' operations. Jackson and Mitts did not identify who was behind the trades, but noted they were highly unusual.
'Our findings suggest that traders informed about the coming attacks profited from these tragic events, and consistent with prior literature we show that trading of this kind occurs in gaps in U.S. and international enforcement of legal prohibitions on informed trading,' they write.
Quote:
And another trader made a remarkable 227,000 short transactions on October 2 against the EIS - the Enterprise Investment Scheme (EIS), a security traded on the New York Stock Exchange.
The EIS gives investors exposure to Israeli exchange-traded funds.
The value of EIS fell by 7.1 percent on October 11 - the first day the U.S. market was open after the terror attack - and within the first month lost 17.5 percent of its value, meaning that that one trader profited handsomely from the October 2 trades.
Mossad needs to add a few more names to their kill list if what is alleged can be proven.Quote:
'Although we see no aggregate increase in shorting of Israeli companies on US exchanges, we do identify a sharp and unusual increase, just before the attacks, in trading in risky short-dated options on these companies expiring just after the attacks,' they wrote.
Hamas, which since 1997 has been proscribed as a terrorist organization by the United States, cannot carry out transactions on the open market.
Any Hamas figures who tried to do so risk having their assets frozen by the U.S. Treasury.
But the group has taken advantage of innovative financing systems, such as cryptocurrency.
A Wall Street Journal report found that, between August 2021 and June 2023, three terror groups - Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad and its Lebanese ally, Hezbollah - collectively received over $134 million in crypto.
Hamas received some $41 million in digital currency over the nearly two-year period, the Journal reported.
Islamic Jihad received $93 million.

Two points to think about today. The first is what did Israel gain from the ceasefire? Was it really worth pausing the successful ground campaign? Short (and long) answer is yes and you'll see my thinking shortly. The second is that now is time to begin thinking about The Day After Hamas. What happens when Israel finally crushes Hamas, somebody representing the Palestinians surrenders, and the war is over?
But first, why the pause in the fighting in the first place? The easy answer is because of the hostages. OK, sure. They were important, but taking a broader view, there are many other advantages that the Israeli Defense forces (IDF) gained from the pause.
First, they never really let up the pressure on Hamas. Yes, there was a general cessation to fighting, but almost every break by Hamas in the ceasefire was met with an overwhelming response. Further, the IDF continued to maneuver their forces and this worked to keep Hamas off balance.
Second, the IDF was able to consolidate their gains. This allowed them to dig in, secure their lines of communications and logistics and neutralize any undiscovered IEDs and, yes, I'll say it because I'm an old curmudgeon…booby traps. (And not the Joe Mannix kind) The pressure brought by the IDF in these areas also prevented Hamas "stay-behinds" from causing much mischief.

Not set to be used, but they are.l being prepared.
